I've updated the file phyconsts.4th which is now part of each of the
different kForth distributions. These constants provide selected new
2018 CODATA values released by NIST on 20 May 2019, updating the
previously recommended 2014 CODATA values.

The Forth file may be found in the current development versions of
kForth-32, kForth-64, and kForth-Win32, or obtained from

https://github.com/mynenik/kForth-64/blob/master/forth-src/phyconsts.4th

The source reference for these constants is

https://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Constants/index.html

The "Version history" link on the page describes the various revisions.
